Default Electronic cutout?

Anyone have any experience with this, and know where / what is the best for the best price?


I'm looking to install it myself, as well as installing all the electronics myself.

I've got a McCord from BYUNSpeed, works great, and was only $115. It doesn't come with the actual cutout (tubing) piece though.

actually you can get pretty much any size since the pipes can just be expanded to fit, might look a little stupid, but nobody is gonna be down here judging your cutout setup.
if you have aftermarket **** most likely it is 3", but if it is stock i think its 2.75".

Would you recommend getting the tubing or not?

What do you guys think about this? Comes with everything needed it looks like.. 160 is a pretty sick price..

The best is QTP and the best price going is from Summit.

What are the disadvantages of buying one without the pipe?

Get the valve from summit but get the stainless cutout direct from qtp. I would not recommend a non stainless cutout.

You can just buy the Flowtech cutouts(tubing) for like $35, if you get the McCords.

you do realize you need the cutout pipe to put the actual electric part on..right.
